Number of sanctuary cities nears 500: Report
The Washington Times ^ | March 14, 2017 | Stephen Dinan

Nearly 500 jurisdictions are now sanctuary cities, according to a group that’s tracked the issue for more than a decade, and who said there’s been a massive surge in the number of places trying to thwart federal immigration agents since President Trump’s election.

The Ohio Jobs & Justice Political Action Committee (http://www.ojjpac.org/sanctuary.asp) has added more than three dozen new cities and counties to its list in 2017 alone, as jurisdictions rush to try to shield illegal immigrants from what they expect to be a new push for deportations under Mr. Trump.

“More will be coming,” said Steve Salvi, founder of OJJ. “A lot of communities now, there’s resolutions in the works and citizens groups encouraging city councils to pass them.”

Cut all federal funds.
When the locals have to pay for the real costs of illegal aliens they might side with the rule of law and the citizens.

The federal funds not sent to these cites will more than pay for the wall, until we get the money from Mexico.

Article is a joke.

They count any locality that even THOUGHT ABOUT or PROPOSED cutting illegals a break as a “sanctuary city”.

With all the non-violent offenders that have been released we now have plenty of prison space for the lawbreakers that pretend to run these cities.

Yep, this. We can’t allow for this injustice, and those responsible need to be put out of office.

First, arrest all m500 mayors on the same day. If the cities don’t stop the criminal behavior o0n their cities’ part, arrest all of the city councils.

It seems to me that US Marshals are going to be busy arresting 500 mayors for obstruction of justice, and in some cases (San Francisco), accesssory to murder (Kate Steine).

Yup. US Marshall should be arresting the mayors of these cities as we speak.
